What is the correct syntax for the datePattern to keep the .log extension on the rolled over files, such as Mylog.log Mylog.2008-02.log Mylog.2008-03.log Mylog.2008-04.log I don't want the date of the file to be the last extension. I have tried the following but get an error: System.NotSupportedException: The given path's format is not supported. at System.Security.Util.StringExpressionSet.CanonicalizePath(String path, Boolean needFullPath) at System.Security.Util.StringExpressionSet.AddExpressions(String[] str, Boolean checkForDuplicates, Boolean needFullPath) at System.Security.Permissions.FileIOAccess.AddExpressions(String[] value, Boolean checkForDuplicates, Boolean needFullPath) ...etc The append works fine withouth the DatePattern, but I always get the above error using any datePattern statement like: <param name="DatePattern" value=".yyyy.MM" /> <appender name="StatisticsRollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender" > <param name="File" value="Log/Statistics.log" /> <param name="DatePattern" value=".yyyy.MM.dd hh:mm.log" /> <param name="AppendToFile" value="true" /> <param name="MaximumFileSize" value="300KB" /> <param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="5" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%m%n" /> </layout> </appender> I also tried with tick marks: <param name="DatePatern" value=".yyyy.MM.dd hh:mm.'log'" />
Thanks, Joe.
